Product Giveaway: Samsung Blackjack II Smartphone
Oct 23, 2008 Product Giveaway
OK, this is a really exciting giveaway! I went to a Microsoft event last week and left with a lot of great stuff, and I’m giving most of it to you guys (not all of it; look at the title of my blog). The phone is white on the front and blue on the sides and back, and runs on the AT&T network. This looks like a fantastic phone:
- Microsoft Windows Mobile 6 (you can view and edit Microsoft Office files and view PowerPoint files)
- 3G UMTS/HSDPA, GPRS/EDGE (which I think means it can connect to the ‘net really fast)
- Video Share capable (which means that this phone supports video calls, for an extra fee – how cool is that?)
- AT&T Mobile Music and Video
- Email and instant messaging
- Bluetooth Wireless connectivity
- 2.0 Megapixel integrated camera
- Integrated GPS
It has an external microSD memory card slot, a full QWERTY keyboard, supports multiple email programs, and has all of the usual calendar and alarm functions and games. It even has world-wide roaming capabilities for those of you with exciting lives.
Please note: it is up to you to figure out if this phone will work where you live, on your network, on your wireless plan, etc. I take no responsibility! I have enough trouble keeping all of my own gadgets in line. To further protect my ass, I am not responsible for anything that happens to you while you’re using the phone, looking at the phone, or even in the same room as the phone. Once the phone leaves my hands my responsibility is over.
I myself have a non-smart non-Windows phone, and I regret it. I mean, I love my phone for the things it does do, but if I had to do it all over again I would only choose from phones that run Windows and that I can work on Microsoft Office files on. My computer runs Windows Vista, I work on a lot of documents, and I realize now that I really need a phone that can work better with my other electronics.
This phone retails for anywhere from $330 with no contract commitment (how you’re getting it) to $80 with a two-year plan and the rebate that’s currently being offered by AT&T. But one of you will win one for free! To enter, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post between now and noon eastern on Tuesday, October 28th. Any comments received after noon eastern on October 28th will not count! In your comment, tell me what your favorite feature is on this phone (you can see more features here).
The winner will be chosen at random by random.org. Only U.S. mailing addresses are eligible. Only one entry per person per day please. I’ll say that again: you can answer once per day!
Good luck, and thanks to the nice people at Microsoft!

Kel has one of these and we are on AT&T now so I know it works here in the VI…….me me me!!!
Oh I forgot to say my favorite feature is the qwerty keyboard…I am a huge fan of texting and return all my work emails when I am stuck in traffic

OK, I am loving the QWERTY keyboard and so need that with all the texting I do! What an awesome giveaway and thanks for posting!!!
I DESPERATELY need a new phone! My 2 yr. old has destroyed mine but it is so outdated by now that it doesn’t really matter. I SO need this!! Thank you for such an awesome giveaway!! I will tell my friends, but not too many ‘cuz I want to win. I guess I would fit right in here!
My husband broke his phone and since he’s a student, we cant replace it just yet! This would be great- as we are on the AT &T network!
Perfect timing! My phone totally died on me today! I could really use this to replace it!
would LURVVV to win this! Thnx for the opportunity
Not a double entry, but forgot to say: everyone else go away so I can win!
Seriously, I have to have that. My iPhone is cracked and I’d rather not switch providers right now to get the Google phone and the economy is so bad and…
My favorite feature is that it’s not all effed up!
qwerty keyboard is the best feature. I miss my blackberry I used to have for work. I never text now since my phone is non qwerty.
The qwerty keyboard and mp3 player capabilities are my fave features.
This looks awesome. No way you can call yourself selfish now.
I like gadgets but it would probably take me a few months to earn the degree required to operate it. Meh. Why not?
No sob stories here. In keeping with your blog theme–I just want it, and I want it NOW. (”Daddy I want a goose that lays a golden egg, and I want it NOW!”) I am a phone slut. I love all the features. Today I’ll start with the GPS. I really, really need that one.
I want this phone!!!! I love gadgets.
I need it, I need it !!!
my phone is old school…and the hinges would rather keep it shut. totally need an upgrade and this one looks fantabulous.
I love my family so much that I am always showing pictures of them to my friends.
I would love to have this phone so I can show them a higher quality picture and video of my loving husband and child. I also really need a new phone.
The GPS would help me show alll my friends exactly where my family is at all times.
lol
woohoo!! a smart phone!! luv it…
Oh my goodness, I would LOVE this phone for numerous reasons, mainly that my current one is spotty because of “water damage” and I need to be able to see the stuff I work on when I’m away from my computer. Favorite feature? There are lots but the full keyboard is sweet, especially because I am hopeless at text message updates to Twitter without one.
Me! Me!
Can dads win too? I want one!
Mine!
Please delete my earlier comment.I forgot to mention my fav feature. I love that it has a camera with it.Mine!
Bluetooth and hands free speaker phone for me! Would be happy to have this phone.
My current phone used to have pretty good features until it got wet so often that several of the buttons no longer work. I would love to be able to work on an MS Word document on the go and upload the changes to my computer.
I’m loving that keyboard as I do a lot of text messaging this would awesome to have. I hope I win…Thanks for the giveaway!
Covet! Would love to be able to text without scrolling through 3 letters each key.

I like the GPS…I tend to get lost (very easily).
OK, I am loving the QWERTY keyboard and so need that with all the texting I do!
When I was 9 years old I had a dream about GPS and I was like “where am I ?” “Where am I ?” And then I found out where I was. Oh yeah!!!!! Then I needed a keyboard when I was 32 years old and then music at 35yrs . At 36 I was committed to a special bluetooth 3G hospital. They told me that i had a a quad-band.Of course my family was called right away on their world phone which also had a camera which made it easy to take pictures of my GPS.
Now I know where it is and will never be lost again.
Please pick me so I can be whole again.
thank you.
Day 3–actually Day 4, but I didn’t get a chance to post day 3. Pictures–I need to take phone pictures. Not sayin’ of what though. . ..

The best feature has to be the keyboard touch pad for texting. I’m sick of press 3 three times to get the letter I or whatever. But I also like all the multimedia features it comes with as well!

Please Amy! My husband would love the qwerty keyboard and this may just be the best Christmas for him in a LOOOOOOOOONG time. It is always him buying us gifts, and we can never find something he really wants. I saw him longingly looking thru the Samsung Website for this.

I wish I could give everyone a phone, but I can’t. I can, however, direct you here, where Kim from Hormone-colored Days has gathered up a bunch of current blog giveaways in one place.
